New Community Action Office Construction Completed
In February 2006, Community Action acquired the empty 30,000 square foot prison building in Glouster, Ohio. This building was constructed in 2001 as a minimum security "Boot Camp" but was never used. Community Action staff began developing ideas for using the building in 2003 as they toured the facility with various funding sources and potential partners.
In 2004, plans became more complete to acquire, remodel and create a multipurpose Community Action Service Center that would house Community Action's administrative offices, a medical clinic for Doctor's Hospital, the Glouster Village Police Office, a Head Start Center, and a multipurpose "Community Room". This project will not only improve service delivery to northern Athens County, southern Perry County, and eastern Hocking County, but would eventually locate over 50 full time jobs for the community.
Community Action awarded contracts and began renovation construction for Phase I of the project; Community Action offices and Glouster Village offices. We officially moved in on October 1, 2007. Our new location is: 3 Cardaras Drive P.O. Box 220 Glouster, Ohio 45732 Telephone: 740-767-4500 Fax: 740-767-2301 Toll Free: 1-800-686-1093
